School Should Be A Safe Learning Environment For Children

Drug cartels have arisen as a major crisis for the future in the Americas. Individuals indulge themselves on drugs for many reasons such as tradition, attempting to escape poverty, and generating revenue for rebellious activities. Drug trafficking has proven to be ludacris, with the increasing involvement of corrupt government officials in their distribution. The UN has stated the approximate estimation of profits of drug trade is roughly around $150 billion alone in the Americas, which accounts slightly less than 5% GDP. Currently the most common way of drug transport is land through Central American countries like Mexico, and it eventually crosses over the border to the United States.

After the Sandy Hook, there were countless ways for students to be safe at school. In Preparing for the Unthinkable: School Safety after Sandy Hook news article, Vicki Bauman said, “ Instead of gates, guns, and metal detectors, let’s invest in the things we know will make us safer: counselors, health care, teaching positive behavior, and making sure we have services to reach out to disconnected youth and pull them back on track.” Therefore, violence is not the answer to any question or issue. The community and school system should take a stand and get the necessities that the schools need to have a safe environment for the students and faculty and staff. The school can invest in law enforcement. The law enforcement will be able to conduct a consistent search through a metal detector. The law enforcement will help the students to avoid bringing prohibited weapons to school as well as, there to protect the school.

Many students in America, might consider school almost like a home because they spend about half a day in. We need students to be safe at school, so why not have an officer patrolling the hallways. To make the school much safer, the officers should have guns in case there is a threat towards the students. In the eyes of many United State citizens a gun can symbolize death; however, a gun can save several people’s lives. As U.S citizens, we have the right to keep and bear arms, so why do we not have police officers with guns patrolling schools. “Gun violence is a major social issue in America and American schools and university campuses have become targets of gun violence” (Bond). In the U.S we had several severe situations when someone comes to the school and starts to kill not only students, but teachers and staff, this could have been prevented if we were prepared and secured. Although the opposition may suggest it could be more dangerous to have an officer or guard be allowed with a gun; however, having an officer with a gun would decrease the number of shootings and other minor problems at schools.

Although there are many, loving and caring students all around the world.Many students in school could have firearms and drugs on school grounds at anytime around during school hours and after. There are also bad things about searching there lockers you could maybe go through their privacy and personal belongings.

Laws are in place for different reasons and it is important that they are followed, especially in schools. Everyone knows that certain drugs, like marijuana, are illegal in some states. Though marijuana has been legalized in multiple states around the country, it is still illegal to have or use it on school grounds. Allowing searches of school property will ensure that this illegal drug stays away from schools. Another important law that must be followed deals with the Second Amendment. The Second Amendment states that everyone has the right to bear arms, but there are circumstances. These circumstances include having a permit and carrying weapons on school grounds. Weapons do not belong on school grounds under any circumstances. The presence of weapons can lead to violence and even school shootings. There have been too many school shootings, across the country in the last couple of years, and allowing police units to search the schools could prevent these

It is no secret that drugs are prevalent in every nation in the world. However, how do these illegal drugs move throughout the world? Drug traffickers have gotten very creative in the methods they use to transport drugs across state line and country’s borders. Major drug cartels of Mexico recruit children with the promises of fast easy money and little risk of detection by police. They use children for several reasons; they are less suspicious, can travel on planes without adults, they create a “family” look so no attention is drawn to a group. What the children do not know is they are expendable to the cartel, and if the transport does not go according to plan, their lives are on the line.

Since 2010 there have been thirty-one school shootings in the United States alone (Black). In this past year, the year of 2013, there have already been 8 school shootings in the USA (Black). Eight school shootings in one month. That number is outrageous and not healthy for our students to have the best learning experience. No student deserves to go to school fearing that they may fall victim to violence at their school. I believe that our schools can be made safer by a law being written that teachers should be allowed to carry concealed firearms in school. It is best for teachers to carry firearms to school because it will provide safety to

Out of all of the school shootings that happen a year, there are at least two a month. School shootings can happen anywhere at any time, like preschools, high schools, elementarys. This is why teachers and students should carry concealed weapons. Teachers and students should be able to carry weapons because it is a way for self-defense, protection, and safety. As can be seen, teachers and students should be allowed to carry on college

Concealed carry is allowed in the public why shouldn’t it be allowed in schools? If adults had weapons they could protect students. I believe in school’s adults should have the right to carry a concealed weapon.

With millions of dollars being spent on measures to fight weapons and drugs in schools, little reason for optimism exists due to the track record of these methods and programs. Drugs and problems still continue to be a serious problem for our youth. For example, despite spending more than 20 million dollars on the installation of metal detectors at public schools in New York City, weapons continue to be a serious problem. In order for us to have safe schools, we need to bridge the gap between

Should teachers be allowed to possess guns during school hours? I think that teachers shouldn’t be allowed to possess guns during school hours because of three reason. First reason is because it is dangerous for students . secondly because it will increase violence. Lastly because of the teacher use. In the next few paragraphs i will explain why teachers shouldn't be allowed to possess guns in school.

School is a place to study and learn. However, we have to think our safety sometimes, even we are not in the battle field. Killing someone is a crime. People know it, but they are still doing that and someone picked school where the most defenseless and innocent students have to go everyday. The reason why they choose this place because they know there isn’t anyone can stop them. School shooting has gone up from 4 cases in 2000 to 40 cases in 2014 (Wikipedia). A few unarmed guards are not going to stop them at all. We need trained armed guard and police officers in schools.

Dear school board I am here to talk about the drug dogs. Many people may think this is a bad idea or a injustice way to catch children but I disagree with that. I believe that the drug dogs are a good thing to bring to school because the high school is not the place to have drugs. Children should not have or bring drugs to school and if they do the public has the right to take them away from is. There for the drug dogs need to stay so that more children can be safe. the schools need to stay a place where kids can feel safe to go to school and if there is drugs around people will be selling them and people will fell uncomfortable around them. People may be saying that it is not right to search my property without a warrant and you will make

What is the first thing that comes into your mind when you hear of the region Latin America? Poverty, violence, drugs? Latin America is a major region where drugs are generated, imported, and exported. The general stereotype with regards to Latin America is that the region is drug infested due to the history of use, the problems regarding drug trafficking, and the continued statistics proving the ongoing use of drugs. Despite the fact that not every country in Latin America fits in this mold, history and data supports this impression.

One of my suggestions is that is the police officer shouldn’t come to school to enforce school discipline, but it depends on a situation. That is like some students would bring guns or something dangerous, or have big fighting at school. I think these are normal thing for police officer to enforce and help school, but there was a surprised incident at school in South Carolina. That was that a teacher called to police officer because a girl continued to play with her phone. The police tackled her to take phones from her. I knew the incident form an article that is written by Los Angeles Times,
